摘要

在册种姓(SC)和在册部落是印度社会中最边缘化的两个部分,多年来一直遭受歧视。印度政府自独立以来采取了各种政策措施来消除对他们的暴行和歧视。本研究试图了解旁遮普农村的表列种姓是否在独立七十年后仍因其社会属性——种姓——而继续遭受经济歧视。利用国家统计局的就业-失业数据,对旁遮普邦农村劳动力市场中基于种姓的经济歧视的性质进行了研究。这些分析支持了种姓群体在职业选择和工资差异方面存在差异。在旁遮普农村,SC家庭的工资相对低于非SC家庭。SC工人从事低地位和低回报的传统种姓职业。在旁遮普农村,SC工人选择临时工的概率相对大于非SC工人。

Does Labour Market Discriminate Against the Scheduled Castes? Empirical Evidence from Rural Punjab, India
Scheduled Castes (SC) and Scheduled Tribes are the two most marginalized sections of Indian society that suffered discrimination through the ages. The government of India since independence has adopted various policy measures to remove the atrocities and discrimination against them. The present study attempts to understand whether or not the Scheduled Castes in rural Punjab continue to suffer from economic discrimination on account of their social attribute—caste—even after seven decades of independence. The nature of caste-based economic discrimination in the labour market of rural Punjab is examined using NSSO’s employment-unemployment data. The analyses support the existence of differences in occupational choices and wage differential among the caste groups. The SC households earn relatively low wages than the non-SC in rural Punjab. The SC workers are engaged in low-status and low-rewarding traditional caste occupations. The probability of SC workers choosing casual work is relatively greater than that of non-SC workers in rural Punjab.

期刊介绍: Millennial Asia: An International Journal of Asian Studies is a multidisciplinary, refereed biannual journal of the Association of Asia Scholars (AAS)–an association of the alumni of the Asian Scholarship Foundation (ASF). It aims to encourage multifaceted, multidisciplinary and interdisciplinary research on Asia, in order to understand its fast changing context as a growth pole of global economy. By providing a forum for Asian scholars situated globally, it promotes dialogue between the global academic community, civil society and policy makers on Asian issues. The journal examines Asia on a regional and comparative basis, emphasizing patterns and tendencies that go beyond national borders and are globally relevant. Modern and contemporary Asia has witnessed dynamic transformations in cultures, societies, economies and political institutions, among others. It confronts issues of collective identity formation, ecological crisis, rapid economic change and resurgence of religion and communal identifies while embracing globalization. An analysis of past experiences can help produce a deeper understanding of contemporary change. In particular, the journal is interested in locating contemporary changes within a historical perspective, through the use of interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary approaches. This way, it hopes to promote comparative studies involving Asia’s various regions. The journal brings out both thematic and general issues and the thrust areas are: Asian integration, Asian economies, sociology, culture, politics, governance, security, development issues, arts and literature and any other such issue as the editorial board may deem fit. The core fields include development encompassing agriculture, industry, regional trade, social sectors like health and education and development policy across the region and in specific countries in a comparative perspective.
